Hanumannagar Yoginimai

Hanumannagar Yoginimai is a municipality in Saptari District, in the eastern part of Nepal, within Madhesh Province. English Wikipedia files the article under the name Hanumannagar Kankalini Municipality, and its own text refers to the earlier Hanumannagar Yoginimai Municipality as the unit that other village development committees were added to, so the two names point to one local government. The municipality was established on 19 September 2015, when the government announced 26 new municipalities, by merging the existing Hanuman Nagar, Joginiya-1, Joginiya-2, Gobargada and Inarwa village development committees. Bhardaha, Portaha, Madhawapur, Rampur Malhniya and Malhniya were added afterwards, giving a municipality of 14 wards. The centre of the municipality is the Hanumannagar Bazaar. After the ten village development committees were merged, the municipality had a total population of 45,734 at the 2011 Nepal census. The article lists Nepali as the official language and Maithili as the local language.
